Table 2.

DmPFC recruitment of distinct social tasks and their topographical overlap with individual connectivity-derived dmPFC clusters

Theory of mind (1558 voxels in dmPFC) Moral judgment (2527 voxels in dmPFC) Empathy (108 voxels in dmPFC)
Caudal-right cluster (red)  0.00% (0 voxels)  0.00% (0 voxels) 12.04% (13 voxels)
Rostroventral cluster (green) 37.08% (589 voxels) 57.70% (1458 voxels)  3.70% (4 voxels)
Rostrodorsal cluster (blue) 58.22% (907 voxels) 20.06% (507 voxels) 49.07% (53 voxels)
Caudal-left cluster (yellow)  3.98% (62 voxels) 22.24% (562 voxels) 35.19% (38 voxels)

Percentage of dmPFC cluster involvement in 3 different social cognitive tasks: meta-analytic convergence underlying Theory of mind, moral judgment, and empathy (Bzdok, Schilbach, et al. 2012) were tested for topographical overlap with the dmPFC VOI of the present study. These overlapping voxels were further assigned to all clusters. To illustrate the dissociable subregions' contributions to each task, color highlights overlap between dmPFC cluster and meta-analytic maps beyond 10%.
